by Nick Delgado

Guam - An investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of an off-duty police officer is still underway. Guam Police have not been able to determine the exact cause of death of Police Officer One Gerard Perez who was found pinned under his jeep on Wednesday.

Police had cordoned off a portion of the area where Perez was found to conduct their investigation but released the scene back to the family yesterday. Criminal Investigation Division agents are still waiting for an autopsy to be conducted, as medical examiner Dr. Aurelio Espinola has been off-island.
